Accelerometers Complete Feynman’s Gravity Lecture

"In conversations with me, a skeptic may to refer to Einstein’s spacetime curvature theory, and the experiments that prove it, as 'your theory.'" I confess having mixed feelings about being credited with Einstein’s most profound and beautiful theory — by someone who has discarded the evidence for it and doesn’t believe it.”

—David Levitt

 

A new, simpler way to describe and prove Einstein’s gravity theory, using modern mobile accelerometers. These days we can easily prove Newton’s gravity theory was wrong and Einstein’s was correct — using a smartphone.

 

This short article makes Einstein's gravity theory easily understandable, referring extensively to Prof Richard Feynman's uniquely insightful lectures about gravity. I'll be presenting it in March 2024 as an invited paper in my second international physics conference.

Modern proof of Einstein's gravity by mobile accelerometer
• Objects in free fall have a proper acceleration of 0
• Earth's surface proper acceleration is outward at 1g

For the green Y vertical coordinate of the device’s motion, a value of -1 denotes a 1 g proper acceleration straight up, away from earth’s gravitational center. The horizontal axis is time. Read Completing Feynman's Gravity Lecture
